Michael Schofield.
The scout is Dave-Te'Thomas. He has more than 40 years of experience scouting for the NFL. With the NFL Draft Report, Thomas handles a staff that evaluates and tests college players before the draft and prepares the NFL's official Draft Packet, which is distributed to all 32 teams prior to the draft.
Thomas says Schofield is the best RT in the draft. Scroll down to 7:20 of his draft chat.
Link. Here is an analysis of Schofield, which says that he could be picked as early as the end of day two.

Thomas also loves Dennard. Says he is the best CB prospect in the last ten years. Loves Donald. He HATES Manziel.
I don't know why Pugh wouldn't be able to play LT. He played it at Syracuse very effectively and has very good feet.
That's a fair point Mook but even if they expect Pugh to stay a RT this year Schofield would be insurance. Depth was an issue up and down the line last year.
Later in the chat he mentions that Dennard has the LOWEST YPA of all since 1968 - at 0.88 ypa.
Pretty impressive.
I've liked Dennard, spent most of the year thinking he was the clear-cut number one CB off the board, but I've been influenced to think he should be lower. Gotta go back and watch some more tape. It's so hard to do that with a CB though.
"Hell, Donald is my #1 player, period. Yeah, shoot me but wait 3 years & see what this kid does as an under-tackle"
I get that, but frankly most LTs we draft after Round 1 aren't likely to be plug and play anyway. I'd rather we take the best tackle talent available than force a pick on someone with LT feet but drawbacks.
A: Come on-you see that kid's drops, penalties & J Finley attitude? Great way to get Haley fired though!
He has one mock and it comes out the night before the draft
Impact player likd wr or de.

good post, got to pee
maybe do, some laundry
look, is that a flea?
I like this, poetry
Maybe my thinking is out of date, but I always thought ROTs tended to be bigger than LOTs. LOTs tended to be the better athletes, and sometimes you'd see a guy like Ogden who had LOT athleticism in a ROT size body.
I think it says a lot about Pugh's talent that he can be effective at 298 at RT. I wonder if you'd want him to keep adding weight. At some point it might affect his game.
Hageman is the illegitimate son of Demetrius Underwood. Like snow-he's a flake
Guy Whimper actually was a better player than he gets credit for here. He's been a solid backup and decent starter when called upon. Going into his 9th year in the league.
More than can be said about some of the other Reese offensive line picks.
